Bunn for Deadpool's Main Book!
Lion king is a cartoon and Disney cartoons due well. There is no live action in it at all. It's as much of a live action movie as the care bears movie!
Yeah that's why I put in in quotes, there's nothing live action about Lion King but it still gets classed with them.
On some of the other movies mentioned.
Secret Life of Pets 2: Doubt it, first one didn't crack a billion not sure why this one would get a boost.
Maleficent 2: First one did worse then Secret Life of pets, was anyone really clamoring for this?
Hobbs and Shaw: Potential, I think some of the love for the series has faded in the US but it's still really popular overseas. Plus the Rock is generally money.
Spider-Man Far from home: Last one didn't crack a billion, but it might get an Endgame boost. So possible. On the other hand how many people will see Endgame as their jumping off point? We'll see.
Godzilla: I think this one will depend on word of mouth. It looks gorgeous and will likely open well, but if it's a trash movie not sure it will have the legs.

I haven't seen a response yet to my question about total weekend vs total thus far (thru Sunday). In the record books, it seems like those would be two different things, as some money worldwide was accumulated prior to the Thursday night previews.
I voted yes, that it will. Actuals are in, and it's been adjusted up about $14m combined:
AVENGERS: ENDGAME's 'Actual' Weekend Box Office Record Edges Higherl - Newsarama
Those still doubting it can hit & even surpass $3B are continuing to underestimate it, IMO. I think it'll already be over the $2B mark by this same time neXt week. It only has to do less than $780m now, starting & including today, to get there. NA & China alone, can & will easily account for well over half that.... domestic box office...
$357.11m is now the official figure, bumping up all its various records a few million here and there.
Assuming its $866m overseas figure still holds, that gives Endgame a record $1.223 billion global launch. ...
Here's some international stats, based on the earlier, slightly lesser estimates:
Oh, Snap! ‘Avengers: Endgame’ Rises To $1.22B+ Global & $866M Overseas Record Bows; Climbs All-Time Charts – International Box Office - Deadline
Believe Russia is the only market it has yet to open in.... launch at No. 1 in 54 markets...
... the highest opening weekend in industry history in 44 markets...
... Thanos was on fire in Latin America where every market logged the biggest weekend ever. Across the region, the cume was $100M, topping Infinity War’s record $74M. In Asia-Pacific, the regional total was $545M to top IW’s record $340M. Europe/Middle East/Africa brought in $214M for another regional record, topping Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ $172M. ...
... Here are the Top 15 markets through Sunday: China ($330.5M), UK ($53.8M), Korea ($47.4M), Mexico ($33.1M), Australia ($30.8M), Germany ($26.9M), India ($26.7M), Brazil ($26M), France ($24.2M), Italy ($19M), Philippines ($17.9M), Thailand ($14.3M), Indonesia ($14.1M), Spain ($13.3M) and Japan ($13M). ...
Over the entire week, tho, not just the upcoming weekend. And something to keep in mind, from that same Deadline link:
... In China today, Endgame is estimated to have assembled another $18.2M ahead of a four-day extended break that begins Wednesday. This is not included in the totals above. ...
If it can accumulate another $230-240m across all territories, from now through Thurs. night, that'll leave only $540-550m that it has to do in the same over the Fri.-Sun. 3-day. Which would be a more average 55% drop from its current WW total as of yesterday.
Yeah, I would fully expect Endgame to earn another billion by next Sunday worldwide.
So, it should be $2.2+ billion when the actuals come in next Monday.
Then, it would "only" need $800 million to hit $3 billion, and I should have left out the quotations because I really believe it's achievable.
I underestimated things in my own poll. I voted $2.5-2.99 billion.
